Tesla 3 - Autosteer

Autosteer
Note: Autosteer is a BETA feature.
Autosteer builds upon Trac-Aware Cruise
Control (see Trac-Aware Cruise Control on
page 82), intelligently keeping Model 3 in its
driving lane when cruising at a set speed.
Autosteer also allows you to use the turn
signals to move Model 3 into an adjacent lane
(see Auto Lane Change on page 90). Using
the vehicle's camera(s), the radar sensor, and
the ultrasonic sensors, Autosteer detects lane
markings and the presence of vehicles and
objects to assist you in steering Model 3.
Warning: Autosteer is a hands-on feature.
You must keep your hands on the steering
wheel at all times.
Warning: Autosteer is intended for use
only on highways and limited-access
roads with a fully attentive driver. When
using Autosteer, hold the steering wheel
and be mindful of road conditions and
surrounding trac. Do not use Autosteer
on city streets, in construction zones, or
in areas where bicyclists or pedestrians
may be present. Never depend on
Autosteer to determine an appropriate
driving path. Always be prepared to take
immediate action. Failure to follow these
instructions could cause damage, serious
injury or death.
Operating Autosteer
Before you can operate Autosteer, you must
enable it by touching Controls > Autopilot >
Autosteer (Beta).
To indicate that Autosteer is
available (but not actively
steering Model 3), the
touchscreen displays a gray
Autosteer icon.
To initiate Autosteer, move the gear lever fully
down twice in quick succession.
Autosteer briefly displays a message on the
touchscreen reminding you to pay attention to
the road and have your hands on the steering
wheel. To indicate that Autosteer is now
actively assisting in steering Model 3, the
touchscreen displays the Autosteer icon in
blue. When Autosteer is able to detect lane
markings, it also displays the driving lane in
blue.
Note: To initiate Autosteer when there is no
vehicle in front of you, you must be driving at
least 30 km/h on a roadway with visible lane
markings. If a vehicle is detected ahead of
you, you can initiate Autosteer at any speed
under 150 km/h, even when stationary (if you
are at least 150 cm away from the vehicle).
